For analyzing performance degradation data, a two-parameter model based on GM was developed. In order to improve the prediction accuracy of the two-parameter model, parameter selection based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) was used. Then, the new PSO-GM(1, 2, co) optimization model was constructed, which was validated experimentally by conducting an accelerated testing on the Ta capacitors. The experiments were conducted at three different stress levels of 85, 120, and 145℃. The results of two experiments were used in estimating the parameters. And the reliability of the Ta capacitors was estimated at the same stress conditions of the third experiment. The results indicate that the proposed method is valid and accurate.展开更多

In order to simplify RVM classifier, parameters selection based on particle swarm optimization (PSO) and preprocessing technique based on the kurtosis and entropy of signals were used. Firstly, sinusoidal inputs with different frequencies were applied to the circuit under test (CUT). Then, the resulting frequency responses were sampled to generate features. The frequency response was sampled to compute its kurtosis and entropy, which can show the information capacity of signal. By analyzing the output signals, the proposed method can detect and identify faulty components in circuits. The results indicate that the fault classes can be classified correctly for at least 99% of the test data in example circuit. And the proposed method can diagnose hard and soft faults.展开更多

Room temperature Hall mobilities of the 2-DEG are measured to be over 8 700 cm^2/V-s with sheet carrier densities larger than 4.6× 10^12 cm^ 2. Transistors with 1.0 μm gate length exhibits transconductance up to 842 mS/ram. Excellent depletion-mode operation, with a threshold voltage of-0.3 V and IDss of 673 mA/mm, is realized. The non-alloyed ohmic contact special resistance is as low as 1.66×10^-8 Ω/cm^2, which is so far the lowest ohmic contact special resistance. The unity current gain cut off frequency (fT) and the maximum oscillation frequency (fmax) are 42.7 and 61.3 GHz, respectively. These results are very encouraging toward manufacturing InP-based HEMT by MOCVD.展开更多
